Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - St. Clairsville, OH.

Short Term alcohol and drug rehab is a term used for addiction treatment that is brief, and usually lasts anywhere from fourteen to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential rehabilitation facility. Because treatment is not long, it is a great financial option and for clients who cannot commit to long-term rehab.

Most short-term drug rehabilitation centers in St. Clairsville have psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the brief time clients are in treatment, most clients will need to be fully detoxed before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term drug rehab center is that many people may still be experiencing the initial phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized completely. This can make treatment within the timeframe much harder as clients may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense cravings.

Relapse rates are understandably greater with people who only get short term treatment as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term substance abuse rehab and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day rehabilitation program at least have a better chance of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
